Big
Hair : A Journey into the Transformation of Self
by Grant McCracken
Most people in modern Western society are obsessed with hair: hair
they have, hair they don't, hair they don't want (there), the latest to-do
about the do of the latest star or starlet--and yet there have been virtually
no in-depth studies of hair in this culture. McCracken, a curator of ethnology,
has written an insightful study of how Westerners redefine themselves by
defining and redefining their 'dos, dont's, and dyes, and the fetishistic
fascination with hair styles of the rich and famous.
Although written primarily about women's hair, and in particular, blond
hair, my entire household--men and women alike--learned a great deal from
the in-depth analyses of these dead strands of protein extruding from tiny
pores on our heads which nonetheless have extraordinary power in determining
status and even wealth. Recommended. Amazon.com

: Its Power and Meaning in Asian Cultures
by Alf Hiltebeitel (Editor), Barbara D. Miller (Editor), Gananath Obeyesekere
Book Description: Hair--whether present or absent, restored or removed,
abundant or scarce, long or short, bound or unbound, colored or natural--marks
a person as clearly as speech, clothing, and smell. It defines a person's
gender, sexual availability and desirability, age, social status, and even
political stance. It may also act as a basis for discrimination in treatment
by others. While hair's high salience as both sign and symbol extends cross-culturally
through time, its denotations are far from universal....

Hair
in African Art and Culture
by Roy Sieber (Editor), Frank Herreman (Editor)
Book Description: In the West, hairstyle choices range from the purely
functional to the complex fashion statement. In the African continent their
significance is far greater. Hair can be an indicator of age, authority,
social status, and religious affiliation, as well as part of a long tradition
of aesthetic adornment or a strictly contemporary style statement. In some
cultures hair itself is used as a potent substabce with supernatural power.
